It’s been a long time since I had the nesting instinct while pregnant. I don’t remember much about it, but I suppose I cleaned and organized the house, and took care of things I’d been meaning to do. Since then, most of the serious domestic activity that happens around here is when we’re getting ready for house-guests or a party!
I’m a big procrastinator (which drives my better-half crazy). I’ve got a long list of things I plan to get to, but I usually default to doing my favorite things – rehabbing and painting furniture, and knitting.
This morning I woke up and decided to do a few things on “the list”. I donned my apron and set up camp in the kitchen making pesto with basil from the garden, roasted tomato sauce (again with tomatoes from the garden, thanks Tim), and turkey broth from a carcass in the freezer.
Now I feel like I’m ready. Ready for what?
For our third grandson who is due August 5th!
Any day now!

I was unusually productive today as well – watered plants, two loads of laundry, made hummingbird nectar, cooked Hello Dollies, enhanced a kale salad kit (thanks to you, Cathy), did some Photo Shopping. Am I, the happily expecting great grandmother, prone to the nesting syndrome?
